"... A two-process theory of human information processing is proposed and applied to detection, search, and attention phenomena. Automatic processing is activa-tion of a learned sequence of elements in long-term memory that is initiated by appropriate inputs and then proceeds automatically—without subjec ..."

Controlled processing is a temporary activation of a se-quence of elements that can be set up quickly and easily but requires attention, is capacity-limited (usually serial in nature

"... In cellular wireless communication systems, transmitted power is regulated to provide each user an acceptable connection by limiting the interference caused by other users. Several models have been considered including: (1) fixed base station assignment where the assignment of users to base stations ..."

stations is fixed, (2) minimum power assignment where a user is iteratively assigned to the base station at which its signal to interference ratio is highest, and (3) diversity reception, where a user's signal is combined from several or perhaps all base stations. For the above models, the uplink

"... The Cooperative File System (CFS) is a new peer-to-peer readonly storage system that provides provable guarantees for the efficiency, robustness, and load-balance of file storage and retrieval. CFS does this with a completely decentralized architecture that can scale to large systems. CFS servers pr ..."

Experience on a globally deployed prototype shows that CFS delivers data to clients as fast as FTP. Controlled tests show

as the number of nodes in the network goes to infinity. It is shown that if n nodes are placed in a disc of unit area in ! 2 and each node transmits at a power level so as to cover an area of ßr 2 = (log n + c(n))=n, then the resulting network is asymptotically connected with probability one if and only
